slice

slice(beginIndex)
slice(beginIndex, endIndex)

// beginIndex: The index at which to begin extraction
// endIndex: This index will not be included.
// Return: A new string containing the extracted section.

let str1 = 'The morning is upon us.'
// the length of str1 is 23.
let str2 = str1.slice(1, 8) // OUTPUT: he morn
let str3 = str1.slice(4, -2)// OUTPUT: morning is upon u
let str4 = str1.slice(12) // OUTPUT: is upon us.
let str5 = str1.slice(30) // OUTPUT: ""

// NEGATIVES
beginIndex is negative: 
// it is treated as (str.length + beginIndex)
endIndex is negative: 
// it is treated as (str.length + endIndex)

slice

Concept:
s[x:y:z] , x- left index , y-1 - right index 
z is the number of steps of jumping between 2 chr 
if z>0 :
    direction of jump is right to left(R2L)
else:
    direction of jump is left to right(L2R)
s[:3] means x=0,y=2,z=1
s[3:] means x=3,y=len(s)-1,z=1

examples:

s="dbdhdhndnbdd"
print(s[2:6:2])
//prints dd as left index is 2 right is 5 -> substring is dhdh & 2 means d,skip h,then d
s="djdjcjfd"
print(s[::-2])
//prints djjj, left index is 0 ,right is len(s)-1 -> substring is djdjcjfd & 
//-2 means start from right side in substring in steps of 2-> d,skip f,then j,skip c,then j & j
